AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS should come AFTER AC_PROG_CC.  The other thing
that you need to realize is that AC_REPLACE_FUNCS([strdup]) merely checks
whether strdup is linkable (for your platform, it always is), not whether
it is declared (with -ansi, it is not).  Therefore, you need to complement
it with AC_CHECK_DECLS([strdup]) and provide your own declaration of
strdup if HAVE_DECL_STRDUP is 0.
